1t is the misfortune or his honor, Mr..
Justice Mooney, of Algiers, La, that his lot
is cast with people incapable Of apprcci-
ating his distinguishing characteristics.
From an editorial in the Atlanta COnstitu-
ton 1t appears that the judges fellow. citi.
zens have signed long document asking
for his removal. They allege that he Is
guilty of "drunken and hoodlumistic" con-
duct; that he is frequently too drunk to
hold court, and that he sometimes sleeps off
debauch at the police station. The Judge
discharges firearms within the city limits,
breaks into houses at 2 o'clock in the morn
ing, smashes windows, and raises ruction
generally. He has been known to take q
milkman's wagon from its owner and drive
through the streets, scattering the milk and
acting like a maniac. So outrageous has
been his conduct that his own mother one
day chastised him with his cane. The Con-
Sttitinn. albeit not an unoharitablo or ultra
fastidious paper, concludes from these ale.
cations that
The petitioners make out good prima facie
case against his honor, but 1t is to be hoped
that no hasty action will be taken. The judges
irolicsome antics may be accounted for in q
satisfactory way, A very small quantity of
domestic wine, with superabundanceo of animal
spirits, is doubtless the true explanation. One
docs not feel disposed to deal harshly with
such case. In some communities 1t would
be decided relief TO see judge occasionally
throw aside his ermlne and mingle with the
boys. Judge Moneys efforts to promote good
fellowship between the bench and the people
are possibly carried to an extreme. but from
all that has been said 1t is evident that his in
finite variety is equal to any emergency. Such
q man should not be squelched without due
delIberation.
At Christmas time 1t is not meet that
every light ofrense should bear its COM
ment. Now, that his honor has been sub.
jected to maternal discipline we shall ex-
peot to hear that he has mended his man
ners and that the petitioners have with
drawn their memorial. "Glve the old man

A Democratic statesm au.

The Hon. $. S. Cox has an interview In
the New York Herald of Monday, which
proves him TO have views aud to be able to
express them. In answer to the question as
TO what was the paramount question: be-
fore Congress, Mr.. Cox answered.
The tariff, unauestonably. Never since I
have been in Congress has the tariff question
assumed such proportions In fact, 1t is hardly
question of tariff so much as how we shall
stop the accretion in the treasury.
Nearly all seem to favor the Stopping OF the
large increment and perhaps The strongest party
IN hC House on one subject Of reduction Is H1t
trhich ,COdd Jdr0r The reduction, II not tis djoi-
hon, Of The tdG on sugar. u Is uss'c3s 10 disguise
hc fact that Uttli question cane up IN he House Il
icouId be carried byd majority. How its success
would operate eventually in killing any re-
form is another point. The reason given for
sugar legislation is not hard 10 find out. Sugar
is an element Of life, absolutely Indispensable;
almost as much Of n necessity as bread ITSELF
IL is nutriment. 1t Is not candy for children,
but is absolute nourishment for families
The amour. of the tax upon that article
through the tariff can very easily be estimated
by those who choose to figure on II. IL has
been estimated.
We regret that space prevents the repro
duction of the entire interview, which is
replete with statesmanlike ideas. 1t is
plainly evident that Mr.. Cox is himself in
favor Of the repeal of this duty on sugar,
because he speaks Of 1t as q tax on what Is an
"element Of life absolutely indispensable"
This is the view that the NATIONAL REpUB.
L1cAN has so often and perslstently urged
upon the attention Of Congress for months
past, and 1t has shown how onerous this
tax is.
But Mr.. Cox did not show his apprecia-
tion of the present needs of the country
only upon the reduction of the surplus.
In answer to what is the most important
question next to the tariff, he said
1t is the question of coast defenses, forti1ca.
tions, the last reflnements in gunnery and
armament, and the building of the navy.
In discussing these points Mr.. Cox showed
himself not only thoroughly posted on the
whole subject, but broadmlnded, as the
leader Of party should be, and not tina,
only, for he displayed the patriotism of an
American citizen, anxious to prepare his
| country against the possible danger Of q
foreign invasion.
The NATIONAL REPUBLICAN, Is not sc
| partisan that it cannot afford to recognize
and commend wise views, such as those
enunciated by Mr.. Cox, even IN political
opponent.

SENATOR TOM COOPER.
The "Goiden- Haired Angel" who Runs
Pennsylvania Politics.

Senator Tom Cooper, of Pennsylvania,
Gov. Beavers prospective secretary of state,
was in towpdora few hours yesterday. The
"Golden.haired Angel" as he has been
called, is not handsome man, having
unoualifedly red hair, and face by no
means fascinating, but he knows mora
about politics, practical and theoretical,
than any man in the Keystone State, where
every one is more or less OF a politician.
Mr.. Cooper would make the most successful
diplomatist OF his time. He can say a Won
derful amount of nothing In q given
time. When questioned about the
object OF his visit here and
about some tender points In Pennsylvania
politics he smiled most blandly, seemed TO
take the reporter to his heart at once, and
forthwith began a long and confidential
chat. IL was all very nice and kind OF the
great man, but some how or other after the
"golden haired angel" had poured forth a
stream Of condolences the scribe could not
recall word that would be Of any interest
to newspaper readers lie would grow en-
thusiastic over the constitution, the tariff,
Gen. Logan, and the weather, but not a
word about his own intentions or about
Senator Cameron's presidential boom or
Matt Quay's senatorial fight. After inter
viewing him one feels under an obligation
to him for his free talk, yet there is nothing
to show for IL.

as "a second Jackson Thereupon the

this implies surprising familiarity on the

fact recently brought out by Harvard

has actually made a larger percentage OF
removals from office since March 4, 1885,

WHEN the schedule Of luxuries was be-
ing prepared for the internal revenue act of
1862, it was submitted to Secretary Seward
for his criticism. Finding tobacco upon
the list he struck it out, saying, "tobaceo
is not luxury 1t Is one of the necessarles
OF life.n Whether 1t be regarded as a
luxury or necessary, the tax upon 1t
ought now TO be abolished, for the reason
that 1t is so general an article of consump.

MAKE YOURSELF AGREEABLE.

Very rarely, if ever, young persons ac.
quire the ability to converse with ease and
fluency.
This implies, first of all, good ideas,
clearly and sensibly expressed.
An empty mind meyer made good talk
er; remember, "You cannot draw water
out of an empty we'll"
Next in Importance is self possession.
''Self possession is nine points in the law
of good breeding.
A good voice is as essential to self pos
session as good ideas are essential to fluent
| language.
The voice, from infancy, should be care
fully trained and GeYeloped; full clear,
flexible voice is one of the surest indica-
tions of good breeding; it falls like music
on the ear, and while it pleases the listener
it adds to the confidence of its possessor, be
he ever so timid.
One may be witty without being popular;
voluble without being agreeable: great
talker and yet great bore.
1t is wise, then, to note carefully the fol-
lowing suggestions:
Be sincere; he who habitually sneers at
everything, will not only render himself
disagreeable to others, but will soon cease
to find pleasure in life.
Be frank; frank, open countenance,
and a clear, CHEEKY laugh, are worth far
more, even socially, than 'pedantrY in the
stiff cravat."
Be amiable; you may hide vindictiYe
nature under polite exterior for Il time, las
a cat masks its sharp claws in velvet fur,
but the least provocation brings out one as
quickly as the other; i'll natured persons
are always disliked.
BE sensible; society meyer lacks for fools
If you want elbow-room, "go up higher"
Be cheerful; if you have no great trouble
on your mind, you have no right to render
other people miserable by your long face
and dolorous tones. If you do, You will be
generally avoided.
But above all, be cordial; true cordiality
unites all the qualities we have enumer-
ated
